Please tell me what map_request does, and when is it called? I'm want to try to make focused windows a different color than regular windows. Thanks in advance.

Whoops, md can't be used in title :(

map_request is called when a window is mapped to the screen, specifically when sowm responds to the MapRequest event from the Xorg server.
